[Icom] 756 Pro II / PW-1 CI-V question

Wed, 21 May 2003 22:15:33 -0400

GOT IT!!! The ACC cable has to be disconnected from the PW-1 while you do
the power on with input button down trick to establish communication....The
amp now follows the rig, and I reconnected the CT-17, and now even the
logging software controls it... HOORAY... nice hardware... crappy manual
section...
